Priming helps Your makeup last longer and with eyeshadow it allows the color to be more visible <3

Usually I have fairly good skin, however when my pores are looking huge I use Bare Minerals Prime Time foundation primer on my face. I use golden tan foundation from bare minerals(i don't know how to describe my skin tone). As far as eye primer goes I use the MAC Paint Pot in painterly.

I always have on both liquid or cream foundation
with powder on top for extra coverage. I do
like to use face primers with mineral makeups,
otherwise though, no not really. Always I wear
either a good concealer on my eyes or a shadow
primer for my makeup to stick too and to have
a blank canvas as a background to build onto.

I use eyeshadow primer everyday. I didn't realize there were people who didn't. :O I use Urban Decay Primer Potion. As far as my face, I don't always use primer. When I do I use L'oreal Magic Souffle primer. It works pretty well. I want Too Faced Primed and Poreless, but it's just too expensive for me. :(

I never use primer for anything. For me personally, it does absolutely nothing. I used to use the ELF face primer but I don't really wear foundation so it was pointless and I have tried both the Urban Decay and Too Faced eye primers and they don't make my shadows look better or stay longer, so I don't even try

I would say if you hate having to prime your whole face, invest in bb creams :) They stay on all day with no primer needed!! But yes, primer for the eyes are a must :)
